PS2.5: Advances in EM Instrumentation & Methods (Professor David Cockayne Memorial Symposium)
Session co-organisers: Peter Nellist, Joachim Mayer, Max Haider, Sarah Haigh
Recent years have seen rapid developments in electron microscope instruments, in particular in the areas of aberration correctors, monochromators, high brightness guns, enhanced analytical performance, new detectors and phase plates.  Combined with parallel advances in quantification, modelling and image processing, these developments have had a significant impact on the quality of the resultant data, with unprecedented spatial and energy resolutions being achieved.  This session will seek to review the latest results and to explore the challenges and opportunities that arise in the use of such new instrumentation and methods.
